Vardy scored 24 times for Leicester City last season, as they won their first ever Premier League title and Arsenal have reportedly activated his £20million release clause.
Wenger says the 29-year-old has earned his played in the Three Lions squad, but will not be first choice upfront.
“I don’t think that Vardy will be a starter [for England],” Wenger told beIN Sports, as reported by The Independent. “He has earned his place in the squad.
“I don’t say this because he does not have the quality, but he doesn’t have enough experience at that level to say the whole tournament will depend on Vardy. Will he be there? Certainly.
“Football progresses always. The offences creates a new problem, the defence responds. What has happened in the last 10 years is that the strikers have become quicker and quicker.
“What’s happened? The defence have responded by creating quicker and quicker defenders.”
